Homework SourseCalculate the fluid force on one side of a 7 ft by 7 ft squa
Calculate the fluid force on one side of a 7 ft by 7 ft square plate if the plate is at the bottom of a pool filled with a fluid having a weight density of 62.4 lb/ft^3 to depth of 8 ft.
c) resting on a 7 ft edge and tilted at 45 degrees to the bottom of the pool.
Answer = [] LB of Force
c) resting on a 7 ft edge and tilted at 45 degrees to the bottom of the pool.
Answer = [] LB of Force
Solution
F = (Intergral)(from 8 - 7/sqrt(2) to 8)(whLdL) whL^2/2 limits from 8 - 7/sqrt(2) to 8 = 62.4x7x0.5x(64-9.3) =11945.59755 lbs
